Accessibility

Web accessibility means that people with disabilities and those who are unable to use a mouse can access web content. For instance, blind persons using technical devices (refreshable Braille display) and software (screen-to-speech software) can understand the informational content of web pages. It also makes web browsing easier for persons with reduced mobility.

The three standards for web accessibility adopted by the Government are as follows:

• Standard for website accessibility (SGQRI 008-01);
• Standard for the accessibility of downloadable documents (SGQRI 008-02);
• Standard for the accessibility of website multimedia content (SGQRI-008-03).
